I would let them know how much they made a difference in my life, how much they mean to me. To guide their futre, I would tell them to do everything that they can do, but don't do what you don't want others do to you. Keep honesty, and most of all, that they are loved by me no matter what.

I will be honest with you. I have no kids...at least not directly in the biological sence. I am a Catholic priest and therefore, celebate.
However, and I don't mean this in a symbolic way, I do truly see the people I serve, of all ages and genders, as my children. Obviously, due to some circumstances some more close that others.
I regularly share both publically and privately, my love for them, my concern for them and my hopes and dreams I have for them. If I am to be remembered, I don't want to be remembered as a "nice priest." If I were even forgotten, I would want to leave a legacy of holiness. If I can get even one of "my children" to embrace the loving grace of our God as creator or Jesus as brother or the Spirit as lover, then I would consider that enough. My life would have been fruitful and my love for them would continue through to the end of time.

demanding question. i'd tell them to bypass after their desires and be all they're usually. note of others and be magnificent. do not provide your daddy a demanding time, be straight forward on him-i understand it should not be a similar yet extremely he's merely as solid. i understand there'll be days the position you're mad at him, i'm getting mad at him too yet like I suggested provide him a spoil he's learning on the way. he will make blunders and so will both one in each of you, yet do not enable those blunders get contained in the way. also be a baby for see you later as you may- you'll quickly have something else of your lives to be an grownup so bypass play contained in the dirt or stay conscious all evening-faster or later you gained't opt for to. don't be frightened of something no reason to. And preserve one yet another. and that i respect you both very a lot. that is what i'd leave for them-that become demanding and makes me very unhappy.

That's a tough question and I hope you aren't in this situation. My dad was diagnosed with terminal cancer a couple of years ago. When he knew it was near the end, he wrote each of us letters letting us know the qualities he liked most about us. He encouraged us to support each other and remember the good times. In each letter he gave a different "favorite memory" that he held on to. Losing a loved one is never easy, but being able to say goodbye and knowing that they admired something about you helps.

I would be more upset than them especially my son who,s 7,i cant bare the thought of leaving him.Id tell him to do what he felt was right, to take advice but to always follow his own heart.To remember to wash,treat every one as you want to be treated,remember to feed hamster,always think "i can do this" make sure he looks after his Dad.
To remember me, id make a video telling him all the things i love about him and how i never thought id feel about anyone, the way i feel about him.

I cant possably answer this question,because I have no idea what you're going through.A friend of mine died of cancer 6 months ago with boys ages 8 and 13.I know they did allot of talking and she made sure that they would be taken care of financially and supported emotionally by people who love them very much.Good luck and God Bless you.I will pray for you.

I would prefer to keep no note as it may make my child cry but of corse if I feel my children are big enough to know their job well. There's no deal making them cry
